Arc-Dark custom bg_selected?
You can write an issue/ask a question here. It's based on the original theme, which is not active since 2017, so I guess the packages in Linux distros are built from that fork.

[RANT] Stop complaining that Fedora 36 theme does not match your favorite software
Me just being lazy instead of looking for it myself...how does this work? For example, let's say I want to use the Arc Dark theme on F36/Gnome 42. The theme claims it includes a GTK4 variant (btw, Fedora uses this fork of the Arc theme according to the rpm spec, as the original has been unmaintained for some time). How do I tell Gnome 42 libadwaita apps to use the Dark Arc theme? If it's an export line in my .profile file, then I must have done something wrong, because that didn't work for me. What is this trickery you mention, please do tell!

Gnome update broke my themes
If your theme is already configured for libadwaita, it should be possible to use it in place of the default Adwaita by overriding the GTK_THEME variable globally or for each application via *.desktop files. For example, to globally set Arc-Dark (from the Arc theme), add GTK_THEME=Arc-Dark to a config file in $HOME/.config/environment.d for Wayland sessions or $HOME/.xprofile for X11.

I really love GNOME, but custom theme-support seems to be officially over
I'm using the arc-theme, however because almost every native GNOME app is being ported to libadwaita, it doesn't make really sense anymore to offer custom theme support.

On praise of arc-theme and questions for its future in gnome-42
I have been using arc-theme for close to 5 years and even when primary author moved on, it seems to be working well enough via jnsh fork (https://github.com/jnsh/arc-theme). Has gnome authors ever considered adopting an existing theme vs building something from scratch?

Upgraded from 18.04 to 20.04 and now the topbar theme look semi broken
I just upgraded upgraded from 18.04 LTS to 20.04 LTS and my topbar theme is a mix of light and dark, I've been using the "arc-dark" theme. I'm not a linux expert..been using it as workstations at home for a few years... perhaps it is due the theme not being compatible anymore as I found a fork here "https://github.com/jnsh/arc-theme"

Which colorscheme has the best features and granular customization (default colors aside)? Or a plugin for building custom color schemes?
Big fan of the base16 philosophy

Customize color theme in NvChad
If anyone struggles with this in the feature, what I was looking for was a list like the one in https://github.com/chriskempson/base16/blob/39fb23df970d4d6190d000271dec260250986012/styling.md.

Colorschemes that use treesitter and are 256-color?
Correct. It uses main Base16 styling.

Lua function to dump current neovim colorscheme to kitty
Nice. Might be useful for dumping themes for the base16 framework

Dark theme with good coverage
Stuff with base16 support is a good place to look. I've had good luck with Gruvbox (dark, hard).

I contributed to (mostly) 14 top-rated Neovim color schemes. Here are some observations
I am not entirely sure what you mean by "universal format for themes", but there I personally love Base16 convention with its recommendation for styling. This is what I ended up (re)implementing for Neovim: mini.base16. It's been around, so most of instruments should have support for this.

Vim Color Schemes
It’s been mentioned earlier in this thread, but base16 is basically that. I use it, and it’s ok!
